Rho GTPases regulate multiple cellular processes including actin cytoskeletal rearrangements, transcriptional regulation, and oxidant production. The studies described herein demonstrate that small molecule redox agents, in addition to protein regulatory factors, can regulate the activity of redox-active Rho GTPases. A novel (GXXXXGK(S/T)C) motif, conserved in a number of Rho GTPases, appears critical for redox-mediated guanine nucleotide dissociation in vitro. A detailed molecular mechanism for redox regulation of GXXXXGK(S/T)C motif-containing Rho GTPases is proposed.
